DIVING EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PROVIDER
PROGRAM (DEMP)
It is a rare event when a dive emergency is a single event. More often than
not, separate small problems compound to create a larger problem.
Divers and dive professionals interested in understanding first aid care for
dive emergencies can now take the Diving Emergency Management Provider course
from a DAN Instructor. This single program integrates the knowledge and skills
from several DAN Training Programs into an eight-hour program.
The Diving Emergency Management Provider course includes:
- Oxygen First Aid for Scuba Diving Injuries
- First Aid for Hazardous Marine Life Injuries
- Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) for Scuba Diving
- Advanced Oxygen First Aid for Scuba Diving Injuries
After reviewing the skills and knowledge development portions of this
program, the students then participate in an integrated scenario where they get
the opportunity to bring together all of the skills they learned in each of the
segments into a single scenario.
If you also hold:
- a rescue-level certification or higher with your training agency; and
- current CPR and first aid certifications,
you will qualify to be certified as a Diving Emergency Specialist.
This program is open to any diver.
To receive this recognition, submit your
application directly to DAN Training with photocopies of all the required
certifications and the $20 application fee.
DES recognition includes a:
- plastic Diving Emergency Specialist certification card;
- DES certificate; and
- DES shoulder patch.
As a DES recognized diver, you will also receive:
- invitations to preview future DAN Online Seminars before they are
released to public at no charge; and
- a coupon good for 10% off oxygen units or accessories.
